HISTORY AND ADMISSION FINDINGS: A 37-year old patient was admitted with upper abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea. A 38-year-old patient was admitted for liver failure.
INVESTIGATIONS: Case 1 was diagnosed with an AL amyloidosis due to deposition of the immunoglobulin light chain kappa in all tissues analyzed. In the bone marrow plasma cells were increased to 20-30%. Case 2 suffered from AA amlyoidosis secondary to familial mediterranean fever and underwent dialysis treatment for years. He was positive for hepatitis B and C.
DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT AND COURSE: Patient 1 developed refractory nephrotic syndrome and low blood pressure. During hemodialysis circulatory failure occured and she died during resuscitation. In patient 2 a flare of chronic hepatitis B was found and treated with antiviral therapy. He was referred to ICU for rectal bleeding and developed pulmonary arrest. After resuscitation he died because of lactate acidosis and refractory circulatory failure. Both cases were subjected to autopsy.
CONCLUSIONS: The vast majority (90%) of amyloidoses are due to acquired AA or AL amyloidosis. Prognosis remains poor, in particular when cardiac and vascular involvement occurs.
